HODINKEE | The road to Basel

You don't meet people like Max Bernardini often. When I first encountered the purveyor of bespoke vintage luxury items in January of this year, I assumed he was American. He's not, despite his practically flawless English, complete with New York accent. He was educated at an American school in Eastern Europe and speaks a handful of languages. Inside his lair of luxury in downtown Milan, Bernardini sells watches. And great ones. And ostensibly, that's why we were there. But we got more than we bargained for, and in episode six of The Road To Basel, you'll find out just what makes Bernardini Luxury Vintage so special, and we'll guarantee this shop will be at the top of your "must visit" list from today on.
